US EditionIran War Enters Third Week
- Two weeks into the war, President Donald Trump faces a stark choice to stay in the fighting or try to extract United States military, confronting no easy solutions against Iran.
- Military planners say the campaign aims to degrade Iran's missile, air‑defence and naval capabilities, prevent control of near‑bomb‑grade material, and exert economic pressure via oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz.
- More than 2,100 people have been killed, including 13 Americans, as the U.S. deploys 2,500 Marines to join about 50,000 forces amid at least 16 commercial vessels attacked by Thursday.
- If the U.S. withdraws now, the stockpile of near‑bomb‑grade fuel would remain inside Iran and risk enabling the manufacture of 10 or more nuclear weapons, risking further proliferation.
- Regionally, about a dozen countries are involved, and Trump appealed for China, France, Japan, South Korea, and Britain to send naval forces to secure the strait, as the war could last four to six weeks.
